Bot filter coming soon

To deter bots pegging the database CPU to 100%, a bot testing filter to be added to the website. This should not affect newsfeeds etc. Anubis seems light-weight - it is already in use within the FreeBSD Project. This notice is just a heads up in case you see something odd. This notice will be updated after Anubis is installed.

sysutils/linrename: clean up and deprecate

This was split out and renamed from util-linux, but has fallen behind
the upstream version, and the port isn't clean, for instance, the
patching of the manual page to track the rename is incomplete.

(cherry picked from commit a50090879796b9a2fad431bcbb51e5f8d0091889)
